Abstract

During the Cold War, threats posed by the “other” side coexisted with desires to maintain connections across the Iron Curtain. Journalists often found themselves on the front lines of these Cold War communication tensions. This chapter challenges common assumptions about Cold War journalism and introduces exceptions to such assumptions, which are explored in further detail in subsequent chapters. The introduction presents a road map of those chapters as well as a methodological overview, and it emphasizes the current relevance of the historical research.
